This paper concerns with the selection of the canonical form for non-minimum phase systems. In particular, it is shown that, by employing the well known controllable canonical form, the uncertainties of such systems can be divided into two terms in the state space model, one in the control channel and the other in the output channel. The necessary and sufficient condition is obtained for the stability of the closed-loop system with the proposed canonical form and ADRC. Also, by showing the necessity of the detectability of the extended system as well as certain information of the system-s ＂zeros＂, we present the fundamental guidelines of design ADRC for non-minimum phase uncertain systems.展开更多

To overcome the explosion of complexity problem in traditional backstepping design, the dynamic surface control(DSC) method is firstly used to deal with the problem of tracking control for the nonlinear non-minimum phase systems. The proposed outputfeedback DSC controller not only forces the system output to asymptotically track the desired trajectory, but also drives the unstable internal dynamics to follow its corresponding bounded and causal ideal internal dynamics, which is solved via stable system center method. Simulation results illustrate the validity of the proposed output-feedback DSC controller.展开更多

In this paper, vacuum-packed flake and globular aluminum powders stored in a dryer after opening the vacuum package are selected as the experimental samples, and a 20 L spherical explosion device is chosen to test the minimum explosible concentration (MEC) values of aluminum dusts under different storage time. The results show that the MEC values of two types of unoxidized aluminum powders are 30 g/m^3. The MEC values of flake and globular aluminum powders firstly go up with the increase of storage time in the dryer and then reach the maximum values of 50 g/m^3 and 60 g/m^3 at respective storage time until finally they stabilize gradually. The main reason is that the oxidation rate is faster owing to the bigger specific surface area of globular aluminum powders. Hence, the storage time has more significant effect on the MEC of globular aluminum powder than that of flake aluminum powder. After a period of time, the outer surface is oxidized to generate a layer of film, which prevents the further oxidation of aluminum powder, resulting in the temporary stability of MEC.展开更多

On 11 September 2023 the minimum was 4.969 million square kilometers(mill.km^(2)). This was not a record low, which occurred in 2012, when the minimum was 4.175 mill.km^(2), 0.794 mill.km^(2) less than the minimum in 2023. However, the ice extent had decreased by 0.432 mill.km^(2) compared with 2022. Nevertheless, the summer melting in 2023 was remarkably less than expected when considering the strong heat waves in the atmosphere and ocean, with record temperatures set around the world. In general, there is a high correlation between the long-term decrease in sea-ice extent and the increasing CO_(2) in the atmosphere, where the increase of CO_(2) in recent decades explains about 80% of the decrease in sea ice in September, while the remainder is caused by natural variability.展开更多

We give the proof and construction of the minimum-area ellipse through three non-collinear points from the geometric point of view, and present a new method of determining knots. This method replaces the chord length, which is closer to the arc length of the mini- mum-area ellipse with arc length, and avoids the occurrence of ＇oscillation＇ and ＇loops＇. We compare the new method with the uni- form method, chord length method and the centripetal method. The comparison is performed on the quality of cubic spline curves using these methods. In most cases, the result of our method is better than others.展开更多

文摘Non-vacuum storage condition has a great impact on the explosion characteristics of aluminum powders. In this paper, vacuum-packed flake and globular aluminum powders stored in a dryer after opening the vacuum package are selected as the experimental samples, and a 20 L spherical explosion device is chosen to test the minimum explosible concentration (MEC) values of aluminum dusts under different storage time. The results show that the MEC values of two types of unoxidized aluminum powders are 30 g/m^3. The MEC values of flake and globular aluminum powders firstly go up with the increase of storage time in the dryer and then reach the maximum values of 50 g/m^3 and 60 g/m^3 at respective storage time until finally they stabilize gradually. The main reason is that the oxidation rate is faster owing to the bigger specific surface area of globular aluminum powders. Hence, the storage time has more significant effect on the MEC of globular aluminum powder than that of flake aluminum powder. After a period of time, the outer surface is oxidized to generate a layer of film, which prevents the further oxidation of aluminum powder, resulting in the temporary stability of MEC.

文摘Currently,the International Maritime Organization(IMO)has approved and implemented the assessment requirement for Minimum Propulsion Power(MPP)of ships in adverse sea conditions.The assessment method and relevant influence factors will have a vital impact on ship's design and operation.On the other hand,MPP is essentially a criterion for manoeuvring safety at actual seas.However,the practical assessment methods adopted in IMO guidelines do not directly and accurately account for ship's coursekeeping ability in severe seas.A time-domain comprehensive method with supplementary course-keeping ability criteria has been proposed in the authors'preliminary research.Based on an updated mathematical model and criteria,this paper presents more detailed elaborations,results and discussions on the time-domain method,including the comparative analyses with a power line method and two steady-state equilibrium methods based on IMO guidelines and draft.Discussions on the influences of key factors,involving criterion conditions and calculation parameters,are also presented.The results indicate that different methods exhibit varying advantages and complexity in MPP assessment,thus constituting a multi-level assessment framework for MPP.In particular,the time-domain comprehensive assessment has a higher accuracy with more realistic description of manoeuvre behaviors,capable of offering a solution for the ships that cannot meet other assessments,or for the assessment requiring additional course-keeping ability.Furthermore,an expanded range of wave direction sets a stricter but potentially necessary requirement,while using the self-propulsion factors at low speeds can eliminate the unnecessary conservation of assessment result caused by those at design speed.

文摘The problem of determining a minimum-area ellipse through three non-collinear points is discussed in this paper. We give the proof and construction of the minimum-area ellipse through three non-collinear points from the geometric point of view, and present a new method of determining knots. This method replaces the chord length, which is closer to the arc length of the mini- mum-area ellipse with arc length, and avoids the occurrence of ＇oscillation＇ and ＇loops＇. We compare the new method with the uni- form method, chord length method and the centripetal method. The comparison is performed on the quality of cubic spline curves using these methods. In most cases, the result of our method is better than others.

文摘Conventional adaptive filtering algorithms often exhibit performance degradation when processing multipath interference in raw echoes of spaceborne synthetic aperture radar(SAR)systems due to anomalous outliers,manifesting as insufficient convergence and low estimation accuracy.To address this issue,this study proposes a novel robust adaptive filtering algorithm,namely the M-estimation-based minimum error entropy with affine projection(APMMEE)algorithm.This algorithm inherits the joint multi-data-block update mechanism of the affine projection algorithm,enabling rapid adaptation to the dynamic characteristics of raw echoes and achieving fast convergence.Meanwhile,it incorporates the M-estimation-based minimum error entropy(MMEE)criterion,which weights error samples in raw echoes through M-estimation functions,effectively suppressing outlier interference during the algorithm update.Both the system identification simulations and practical multipath interference suppression experiments using raw echoes demonstrate that the proposed APMMEE algorithm exhibits superior filtering performance.

文摘Dengue is a mosquito-borne disease that is rampant worldwide,with up to 70%of cases reported to be asymptomatic during epidemics.In this paper,a reaction-diffusion dengue model with asymptomatic carrier transmission is investigated.We aim to study the existence,nonexistence and minimum wave speed of traveling wave solutions to the model.The results show that the existence and nonexistence of traveling wave solutions are fully determined by the threshold values,which are,the basic reproduction number R0 and critical wave speed c^(*)>0.Specifically,when R0>1 and the wave speed c≥c^(*),the existence of the traveling wave solution is obtained by using Schauder's fixed point theorem and Lyapunov functional.It is proven that the model has no nontrivial traveling wave solutions for R0≤1 or R0>1 and 0<c<c^(*)by employing comparison principle and limit theory.As a consequence,we conclude that the critical wave speed c^(*)is the minimum wave speed of the model.Finally,numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the effects of several important parameters on the minimum wave speed.

文摘This paper proposes an extension of the Modified-Plant ADRC(MP-ADRC)strategy to broaden its application to minimum phase dynamical systems.The main features of the MP-ADRC method are the inclusion of a constant gain in series with the plant output error and a linear filter in parallel with the overall error system.These structural changes do not influence the input/output dynamics of the original plant,but are intentionally introduced to modify the dynamics to be estimated by the extended state observer(ESO)and,thus,promote an increase in the robustness of the method.Some advantages can also be attributed to the proposed methodology,such as(i)the design procedures of both the controller and the ESO only require knowledge of the sign(±)of the plant input channel coefficient(or control gain);(ii)the plant control input is generated directly by a single ESO state variable.Despite the advantages and the characteristics of MP-ADRC mentioned earlier,closed-loop stability cannot be guaranteed when it is applied to dynamical systems that have finite zeros.To overcome this difficulty,this work introduces an extension in the MP-ADRC method.It basically consists of rewriting the minimum phase plant dynamics according to its relative order,and then follows with the design of the ESO by conveniently increasing the number of ESO state variables.The simulation results are also presented to illustrate the application of the proposed method.
文摘Minimum quantity lubrication(MQL)is a technique that achieves effective lubrication and cooling of the cutting zone by using a minimal amount of cutting fluid.This results in a decrease in the cutting temperature,extending the cutting tool life and improving the surface quality of the workpiece.Optimizing the nozzle settings can enhance the cooling and lubrication performance of MQL,leading to increased processing efficiency and product quality.Nozzles with different shapes are fabricated,and different outlet diameters and wall thicknesses are set.The cutting process takes into account the impact of spindle speed and feed rate.An experimental study is conducted to investigate the atomization cone angle and particle size distribution of different nozzles.The circular nozzle is more conducive to the concentrated injection of an atomized liquid beam.The atomization cone angle is the largest when the nozzle outlet diameter is 1.2 mm.Enlarging the nozzle outlet diameter will increase the diameter of the atomized droplets.The atomization cone angle increases while the droplet diameter decreases with the increase of outlet wall thickness.Properly increasing the outlet wall thickness is beneficial to improving the atomization quality.The droplet diameter increases firstly and then decreases with the increase of spindle speed and feed rate.Increasing the MQL gas supply pressure and reducing the lubricating oil flow rate will improve the atomization quality of the nozzle.Studies on the influence of the MQL nozzle processing technology on the atomization effect can help to enhance the cooling and lubrication performance of the MQL technology,leading to improved processing efficiency and quality.

文摘This paper presents a dynamic modeling method to test and examine the minimum mass of pressurized pore-gas for triggering landslides in stable gentle soil slopes.A stable gentle soil slope model is constructed with a dry cement powder core,a saturated clay middle layer,and a dry sand upper layer.The test injects H_(2)O_(2)solution into the cement core to produce new pore-gas.The model test includes three identical H_(2)O_(2)injections.The small mass of generated oxygen gas(0.07%of slope soil mass and landslide body)from the first injection can build sufficient pore-gas pressure to cause soil upheaval and slide.Meanwhile,despite the first injection causing leak paths in the clay layer,the generated small mass of gas from the second and third injections can further trigger the landslide.A dynamic theoretical analysis of the slope failure is carried out and the required minimum pore-gas pressure for the landslide is calculated.The mass and pressure of generated gas in the model test are also estimated based on the calibration test for oxygen generation from H_(2)O_(2)solution in cement powder.The results indicate that the minimum mass of the generated gas for triggering the landslide is 2 ppm to 0.07%of the landslide body.Furthermore,the small mass of gas can provide sufficient pressure to cause soil upheaval and soil sliding in dynamic analysis.

文摘Based on the survey data of nine primitive broad-leaved Korean pine forest plots ranging from 1 to 10.4 ha in Heilongjiang Province,this study used the moving window method and GIS technology to analyze the variation characteristics of the spatial distribution pattern of forest biomass in each plot.We explored the minimum area that can reflect the structural and functional characteristics of the primitive broad-leaved Korean pine forest,and used computer simulation random sampling method to verify the accuracy of the minimum area.The results showed that:(1)Through the analysis of the spatial distribution raster map of biomass deviation in the plots at various scales of 10−100 m,there is a minimum area(0.64 ha)for the critical range of biomass density variation in the primitive broad-leaved Korean pine forest.This minimum area based on biomass density can indirectly reflect the comprehensive characteristics of productivity level per unit area,structure,function,and environmental quality of the primitive broad-leaved Korean pine forest community.(2)Using computer simulation random sampling,it was found that only by sampling in a specific plot larger than or equal to the minimum area can equivalent or similar results be achieved as random sampling within the plot,indicating that the minimum area determined by the moving window method is accurate.(3)The minimum area determined in this paper is an excellent indicator reflecting the complexity of community structure,which can be used for comparing changes in community structure and function before and after external disturbances,and has a good evaluation effect.This minimum area can also be used as a basis for scientific and reasonable setting of plot size in the investigation and monitoring work of broad-leaved Korean pine forests in this region,thereby achieving the goals of improving work efficiency and saving work costs.

文摘As a critical component of the in situ stress state,determination of the minimum horizontal principal stress plays a significant role in both geotechnical and petroleum engineering.To this end,a gene expression programming(GEP)algorithm-based model,in which the data of borehole breakout size,vertical principal stress,and rock strength characteristics are used as the inputs,is proposed to predict the minimum horizontal principal stress.Seventy-nine(79)samples with seven features are collected to construct the minimum horizontal principal stress dataset used for training models.Twenty-four(24)GEP model hyperparameter sets were configured to explore the key parameter combinations among the inputs and their potential relationships with the minimum horizontal principal stresses.Model performance was evaluated using root mean squared error(RMSE),mean absolute error(MAE),mean absolute percentage error(MAPE),and coefficient of determination(R^(2)).By comparing predictive performance and parameter composition,two models were selected from 24 GEP models that demonstrated excellent predictive performance and simpler parameter composition.Compared with prevalent models,the results indicate that the two selected GEP models have better performance on the test set(R^(2)=0.9568 and 0.9621).Additionally,the results conducted by SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP)sensitivity analysis and Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanations(LIME)demonstrate that the vertical principal stress is the most influential parameter in both GEP models.The two GEP models have simple parameter compositions as well as stable and excellent prediction performance,which is a viable method for predicting the minimum horizontal principal stresses.

文摘Weak turbulence often occurs during heavy pollution events in eastern China(EC).However,existing mesoscale meteorology models cannot accurately simulate turbulent diffusion under weakened turbulence,particularly under the nocturnal stable boundary layer(SBL),often leading to significant turbulent diffusivity underestimation and surface aerosol overestimation.In this study,a new parameterization of minimum turbulent diffusivity coefficient(Kz_(min))was tested and applied to PM_(2.5)simulations in EC under SBL conditions in WRF-Chem.The original model overestimated the PM_(2.5)simulation and the simulation performance can be improved by adding Kz_(min).Sensitivity experiments revealed different ranges of available Kz_(min)values over the northern(0.8 to 1.2 m^(2)/s)and southern(1.0 to 1.5 m^(2)/s)regions of EC.The geographically related Kz_(min)was parameterized by sensible heat flux(H)and latent heat flux(LE),which also exhibited regional differences related to the climate and underlying surface.Furthermore,we assign physical significance to the parameterized formula Kz_(min)and found that our proposed Kz_(min)scheme can reasonably yield dynamic Kz_(min)values over EC.The revised Kz_(min)scheme(EXP_(NEW))enhanced the turbulent diffusion(north:0.93 m^(2)/s,south:1.10 m^(2)/s on average)in the SBL,simultaneously improving the PM_(2.5)simulations on the surface(north:65.78 to 0.67μg/m^(3);south 30.48 to 12.86μg/m^(3))and upper SBL.A process analysis showed that vertical mixing was the key process for improving PM_(2.5)simulations on the surface in EXP_(NEW).This study highlighted the importance of improving turbulent diffusion in current mesoscale models under SBL and has great significance for aerosol simulation.

文摘It is a challenging issue to obtain the minimum amplitude control for linear systems subject to amplitudebounded disturbances.The difficulty is how to accurately give the quantitative relationship between the system H∞norm and control parameters.An optimal-Lyapunov-function-based controller design concept is proposed,and a minimum amplitude control scheme is presented under amplitude-bounded disturbances.Firstly,the optimal Lyapunov function is proposed by analyzing the geometric characteristics of the system H∞norm,and the necessary and sufficient condition of the optimal Lyapunov function parameter matrix is given.Secondly,the optimal Lyapunov function parameter matrix is constructed in the parameterized matrix equation,and the accurate quantitative relationship between the system H∞norm and control parameters is given.Finally,the control parameter optimization method is proposed according to the quantitative relationship between the system H∞norm and control parameters.Unlike robust optimization control methods,the presented minimum amplitude control scheme avoids the improper selection of the Lyapunov function in the controller design,and provides a novel way to design the minimum amplitude control under the given control accuracy.A buck converter example is given to illustrate the effectiveness and practicability of the presented scheme.
